There's definitely some names I recognise from the old place here already, and I think we'll see more after the 30th.

That's great advice. Nearly 20 years ago I found a local group through my country's Go Association website, and there are a lot more thing online now.

@[email protected] have you tried https://baduk.club/map ?

From the thumbnail, I thought this was going to be a dinosaur comic.

They call them them magazines, e.g. @[email protected] is at https://kbin.social/m/wholesome or here on beehaw at https://beehaw.org/c/[email protected].

There's a rust-specific instance including [email protected]

Unfortunately, I get "This app is not available for any of your devices", even for the old Pixel XL I pulled out of my abandoned tech drawer (I can't believe it still boots!).

Ok, so they're legit and official - I wasn't sure. The 90s-style design made me think it was ok, for some reason, but a few other things gave me pause.

Is their emulator recommended, or do people use a different one?

Turrican II is the one I remember most fondly (especially how you could upgrade your gun to fire plasma(?) bolts bigger than you), but James Pond 2 was great as well.

It was so heartbreaking to fall down at certain places and drop half the tower.

Oh, and Turrican II and Desert Strike and Superfrog and those amazing demos. Many of the cracked games my dad got had better graphics+music on the crack intro than the game that followed. Good times...

I imagine the devs have stats on uninstalls - I wonder what they show.

Haha, I think I just had a little rant at you there even though you were saying the same things I was saying. Bad habits... I don't think I'll be on reddit much now, hopefully enough people stay around to make this place quite active still.

It should be fine - it was busy enough before the blackout, and of course all the good apps will stop working soon, along with a bunch of essential tools for modding, etc.
